Review of Craigslist Joe (2012) by Steve W — 05 Jul 2013
Watch this film, as even though I have rated it 3 does not mean it didn't entertain me in parts and you should make up your own decision, it's not like I just wasted the last 2 hours of my life completely.
However this film had the opportunity to be so much more. The premise for the doc is great, a man who essentially is going to live and die by the site Craigslist to acquire food, bedding, transport and companionship.
It's not that Joe doesn't set out with these intentions and deliver, it's just the fact that Joe is the most boring human being ever to be followed by a camera. Uninspiring with the most generic opinions on life and the people he meets.
The fact he has to ask people for a place to stay after linking up with them made me cringe so many times, he couldn't even charm these people to offer him a place after spending hours with him, they took him in out of pity.
